FLYING BURRITO BROTHERS - THE GILDED PALACE OF SIN
by Bob Proehl
-
The album "Gilded Palace of Sin" was released in 1968, and was a commercial disappointment. Nearly 40 years later front man Gram Parsons is still spoken of as the patron saint of alt-country, emblazoned with a shining cross, dead at 26. Overshadowed by Parsons, this album remains an anomaly in the country rock genre, a map in miniature of a moment in music, and warrants discussion as more than part of the Parsons legacy. Quarter-size, 122 pp.
